The owners of two acclaimed Devon restaurants are opening their new site in Cornwall, taking over the Seven Stars public house in Flushing.
William Speed and Tamara Costin own the Beachhouse in Kingsbridge and The Schoolhouse in Mothecombe. After running the seafood-focused Beachhouse for 13 years and the Schoolhouse for five years, they have been looking to expand into Cornwall for some time.
Costin said: “We’re aiming for an opening date of early spring 2023, with rooms following on thereafter.
“We’ll be ensuring that all the food and most of the drinks, apart from some wines and spirits, will be Cornish, with the pub remaining a great local drinking spot, whilst building a solid reputation as a destination dining location.”
Speed added: “As you can imagine, we are abuzz with ideas, concepts and plans. The Flushing community has been amazingly welcoming and we’re very grateful for that.
“This most definitely feels like my family and I are coming home to this beguiling corner of Cornwall and we can’t wait to get the pub turned around and open again with our Beachhouse DNA additions.”
“We’re very interested to hear from local Cornish producers and suppliers with the highest quality offerings as we evolve our new, ultra-seasonal menus and food and drinks offerings.”
